The Meteori that fell on Earth was from another solar system

Humanity can take hundreds, we don't thousands of years to develop the capacity to explore interstellar space. But sometimes this last one comes to you.

A study of two Harvard University researchers showed that the cosmos may have brought a very interesting visitor to our doorstep five years ago, when a small meteor crashed near Papua New Guinea, south of the Pacific.

Research shows that the 4.5m wide - wide object has probably come from another solar system.

Almost all space objects ending on earth come from within our system, explains science doctor Abraham Loeb, a coauthor of the study.

They are made up of the same material that constitutes our solar system, while those that come from interstellar space are of other origin.

It is as if a message reaches the bottle from the cosmos, he says.

“We can examine and learn something more, the expert adds. One of the most exciting opportunities on such occasions is that of the presence of life and the idea that such objects could carry it along their way. In principle, even within the rock, life can withstand, even bacteria, they can thus survive difficult spatial conditions and get right to us”, Loeb says.
